Lol He once apologized because gameday was down and he couldn't provide any updates. I said "I thought you saw all the games in person" He must just love me. lol
He probably watches 1-2 of the games and then uses the updates for everything else.

Lewis has been more consistent recently he's taking a lot of walks and gradually getting the OPS up. As an aside Gareth Morgan struck out 6 out of 7 AB's last night. :mrgreen:

These two guys must due a move up at some point soon.

He has a 50% SO rate with them, insane and literally all or nothing with him, but at least he is doing better this season.

He has a SO or HR about 65% of his AB since leaving the Mariners system

Warren is just mind boggling. 26 yo, mlb experience, lights out in AA, dogshatt BP in Seattle and they keep him down for no apparent reason.

Imagine what that K rate would jump to in AA facing a lot of top prospects only a month and a half from the bigs.

I think they are keeping them together strategically at this point. The AA team is obviously what they expect to be what feeds and coincides with our winner.

Next year they either move as a group to AAA or start in AA and bypass AAA altogether like Diaz, especially given the chaos that is AAA this season.

The cream of our crop is at AA and fits perfectly with a mid-2021 push to put our best product on the field. Between what is at the MLB level and pushing at the upper minors within the next 1-2 years, we may have even fewer actual holes than it appears.

Our 1B and 3B talent appears to be the biggest obstacle at this point, aside from TOR pitching.

Tell you one thing I like is extending Santana for 2 additional years and using one of the stud prospects to dangle at the Tigers for Matthew Boyd. I like his chances to be at least a #2 or 3 for the next few seasons. Keeping Santana an additional 2 years would ease the pain of losing a prospect or two for Boyd, imo.

There's no reason Dipoto couldn't be a buyer at the deadline in the right situation given that Boyd comes much cheaper than any free agents.

I think Santana has less than two weeks left in Seattle.

Curious to see what kind of package he brings back if the M's do trade him. Hopefully something better than Motter.
